Chapter 2269 The Crying Phoenix Grass, the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Soul
"Oh? Senior brother just asked me to refine pills?"
Chen Xuan looked surprised.
The power of the Nebula Array is extraordinary.
Even if Weng Tian intended to use the Nebula Array as payment to have Chen Xuan refine pills.
Chen Xuan still felt the fee was a bit too expensive.
"Hehe, Junior Brother Chen, you also know that I am now at the Great Perfection of the late Golden Immortal realm!"
"Moreover, to be honest, junior brother, I have been at this realm for a full three hundred thousand years."
"A few years ago, I experienced a great calamity. The power of that calamity was almost unbearable for me!"
"If I cannot advance to the Golden Immortal realm, with my current strength, it will be impossible for me to survive the next Great Heavenly Tribulation!"
"Therefore, I'm clinging to a sliver of hope. Please, junior brother, refine some pills for me to help me break through to the Golden Immortal realm."
In the end, a hint of melancholy appeared in Weng Tian's eyes.
As a powerful cultivator at the late-stage Great Perfection of the Celestial Immortal realm, his cultivation was enviable.
But he lived far too long.
Moreover, staying at the late-stage Great Perfection of the Celestial Immortal realm for too long.
This caused his subsequent tribulations to become increasingly powerful.
Last time, Weng Tian almost perished under his own great calamity.
He asked himself, what if he couldn't break through to the Golden Immortal realm?
It's likely that there's a 90% chance of them perishing in the next great calamity.
In order to survive in the future, Weng Tian had no choice but to take a gamble.
"I see."
Chen Xuan nodded.
Soon, a hint of sympathy appeared in his gaze as he looked at Weng Tian.
"Don't worry, senior brother, leave the pill refining to me. I promise to refine a batch of pills for you as soon as possible to help increase your chances of breaking through to the Golden Immortal realm."
"However, you will need to provide the pill formula and elixirs for refining the pills yourself, Senior Brother!"
Weng Tian was overjoyed.
Soon, Weng Tian looked at Chen Xuan with some embarrassment.
"Junior Brother Chen, I only have three sets of materials for refining the Golden Immortal Pill. What do you think..."
According to general alchemy rules.
If you want to hire an alchemist to refine pills, you need to prepare at least five sets of pill-refining materials.
Finally, the alchemist only needs to successfully refine one batch of pills to complete the task.
Weng Tian prepared three sets of materials for refining the Golden Immortal Pill, but he asked Chen Xuan to refine a batch of the Golden Immortal Pill, which greatly increased the difficulty.
No wonder he looked extremely embarrassed as he gazed at Chen Xuan.
"Haha, no wonder you're so generous, Senior Brother. But it's alright, my alchemy skills have improved quite a bit recently. The materials for three batches of Golden Immortal Pills should be enough to make one batch of Golden Immortal Pills. Just wait for my good news, Senior Brother!" Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"Haha... In that case, thank you so much, Junior Brother Chen."
Weng Tian was overjoyed.
He quickly took out a storage bag and handed it to Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan quickly scanned with his divine sense.
They discovered that the storage bag contained three portions of elixirs for refining the Golden Immortal Pill, as well as a jade slip for the Golden Immortal Pill.
After confirming that everything was alright, Chen Xuan nodded: "Senior brother, everything is fine. I will have someone deliver the Golden Immortal Pill to you in three days."
"Thank you, junior brother!"
Weng Tian thanked him repeatedly, his eyes filled with gratitude as he looked at Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan nodded, put away his storage bag and the Nebula Array diagram, and returned to his seat.
Subsequently, more people began trading with Wengtian.
However, the vast majority of these trades have ended in failure over the years.
Chen Xuan was not surprised by this.
After the Wengtian transaction was completed, Yang Lu, who had the highest cultivation level, immediately stepped forward.
"I don't have as many supreme immortal artifacts as Senior Brother Weng. However, I do have quite a few trinkets!"
"If any fellow disciples take a liking to me, feel free to send me a telepathic message."
Yang Lu smiled slightly.
With a flick of her delicate hand, she displayed all the items she intended to trade to everyone.
Chen Xuan's gaze was instantly drawn to these items.
Examine each item carefully.
"Although Senior Sister Yang's items are a bit messy, their quality is quite good!"
"These medicinal herbs, in particular, are extremely rare. In that case, I might as well acquire some!"
Chen Xuan smiled slightly.
He immediately sent a telepathic message to Yang Lu.
"Senior sister, may I ask how these elixirs are traded?"
Chen Xuan pointed to seven or eight immortal herbs that were millions of years old and asked.
"Oh? Junior Brother Chen has actually taken a fancy to these immortal herbs?"
Yang Lu's expression brightened with joy.
She quickly explained with a smile, "Junior Brother Chen, as an alchemist, you should be able to tell. These celestial herbs of mine are extremely rare, ancient herbs that are millions of years old. Each one is incredibly valuable!"
"Junior Brother, if you are truly willing to make a trade, I intend to offer some healing pills in return. What do you think, Junior Brother?"
Yang Lu is a powerful cultivator at the late stage of the Celestial Immortal realm, nearing the Great Perfection stage.
The healing pills she needs must be of good quality.
However, this matter was not difficult for Chen Xuan.
After a moment's hesitation, Chen Xuan took out a bottle of top-grade Dao-level Exquisite Healing Pills.
"Senior sister, what do you think of this?"
Yang Lu looked surprised.
His divine sense swept across the jade bottle that Chen Xuan had handed him.
When she saw that Chen Xuan had given her a bottle of extremely rare high-grade Dao-level pills, she was overjoyed.
"Hehe, Junior Brother, the quality of your pills is truly extraordinary. In that case, these immortal herbs are yours!"
Yang Lu was very generous.
Without hesitation, I agreed.
They didn't even try to bargain.
This left Chen Xuan looking astonished.
"Senior sister, don't you think it's a loss to trade so many ancient elixirs for a single bottle of Linglong Healing Pill?"
"Hehe, Junior Brother is kind-hearted, but I can't take advantage of you, can I? If we were trading outside, these immortal medicines I have would only be worth five high-grade Dao-level healing pills! This time, I've already made a profit in this trade with you, Junior Brother."
Yang Lu was not greedy.
As he spoke, he put away the exquisite healing pill with a broad smile.
"In that case, thank you very much, Senior Sister."
After thanking him, Chen Xuan immediately put away the 100,000-year-old immortal herbs.
For alchemists, what they desire most is naturally high-quality elixirs.
This time, Chen Xuan was fortunate to be able to acquire so many immortal herbs from Yang Lu at once.
"Just because I don't need these ancient elixirs right now doesn't mean I won't need them in the future. I'll keep them for now!"
Chen Xuan smiled slightly before returning to his seat.
The items Yang Lu brought out were of good quality and came in a wide variety.
Therefore, there is less pressure when trading.
In the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the vast majority of the goods were successfully traded.
This made Yang Lu extremely happy.
As for the remaining items, although there was no transaction, they were not significant.
"Hehe, my transaction is complete. Now, fellow Daoists, please proceed with your transactions!"
Yang Lu smiled slightly.
His gaze fell upon a middle-aged man who was a late-stage Celestial Immortal.
It was Xu Mo from the Longevity Immortal Sect.
"Fellow disciples, I also have some items to trade. However, I am only at the late stage of the Celestial Immortal realm. Therefore, the quality of the items I have for trade is probably not as good as those of Senior Sister Yang and Senior Brother Weng."
As Xu Mo spoke, he took out a storage bag.
They took the contents out directly.
Wow!
Immortal artifacts, immortal ores, elixir recipes, and so on—almost everything imaginable is available.
Chen Xuan's gaze swept over these items.
Seeing that the quality of these items was indeed far inferior to what Weng Tian and Yang Lu had brought out, they immediately lost interest.
However, for others...
Although the items Xu Mo brought out were of lower quality, they were very cheap.
That's why, apart from Weng Tian, Yang Lu, and Chen Xuan, almost everyone else bought all of Xu Mo's things.
In the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, everything in Xu Mo's hands was sold out.
Xu Mo happily returned to his seat.
Soon, another female cultivator in a purple dress stood before the crowd.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I will not waste any more words. Please choose whatever you need!"
As she spoke, the female cultivator in the purple dress smiled gracefully.
They took everything out of the storage bag for everyone to see.
Chen Xuan hadn't held out much hope for the upcoming deal.
However, his gaze swept over the purple-skirted female cultivator's belongings and soon his eyes lit up.
Following Chen Xuan's gaze, a celestial herb shaped like a phoenix lay quietly in a jade box.
It continuously emitted an incomparably pure medicinal fragrance.
With Chen Xuan's keen eyesight, he instantly recognized the origin of this immortal herb.
"This is the ancient elixir of immortality, the Mingluan Grass? This is the main ingredient for refining the Mingluan Pill!"
Mingluan Pill!
Pills that can enhance the cultivation level of a late-stage Celestial Immortal.
Chen Xuan happened to have a recipe for the Mingluan Pill in his hand.
If Chen Xuan could acquire the Mingluan Grass, he could gather the other immortal herbs and refine the Mingluan Pill.
"God is really helping me!"
Chen Xuan looked secretly delighted.
On the surface, however, he remained calm and composed.
Soon, his lips moved slightly, and the female cultivator in the purple dress transmitted her voice.
"Senior Sister Ziyu, how much do you want for this Mingluan Grass?"
"Oh? So Junior Brother Chen, you've taken a fancy to this? This Mingluan Grass was something I found in the cave of a late-stage Celestial Immortal after going through a lot of trouble. If you really want it, how about we trade it for a bottle of cultivation-enhancing pills?"
"Any pill that can improve cultivation is acceptable?"
Chen Xuan asked uncertainly.
If Chen Xuan were to trade a bottle of high-grade Dao-level pills, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.
However, trading low-grade Dao-level pills with high-grade Dao-level pills would not pose any problem for Chen Xuan.
After all, he had a large amount of spoils of war in his possession.
It's perfect for trading.
“Junior Brother Chen, I’m not like you. I don’t have high requirements for the quality of pills. As long as it’s a pill that can replace cultivation, even a low-grade Dao-level pill will do!” Fairy Ziyu said with a smile.
Chen Xuan laughed heartily, and with a flick of his wrist, tossed a jade bottle directly into the hands of the Purple Jade Fairy.
The Purple Jade Fairy's curious gaze swept over the jade bottle.
Upon seeing that the pills in the jade bottle were actually mid-grade Dao-level pills, he was overjoyed.
"Thank you, junior brother. This time, your senior sister has really benefited from your kindness," said Fairy Ziyu, her face beaming with joy.
"It doesn't matter!"
Chen Xuan smiled and nodded. After putting away the Mingluan Grass, he quietly returned to his seat.
After another half-cup of tea's time had passed, Fairy Ziyu finally finished the transaction.
Soon, it was the turn of a burly man with a dark face to take the stage.
The man's gaze swept over the crowd, then he suddenly gave a simple, honest smile.
"Gentlemen, I don't have many items to use for this transaction, but each one is of exceptional quality!"
"Now, let me demonstrate them to you one by one!"
As the burly man with the dark face spoke, he immediately flipped his hand over.
He immediately took out a jade bottle the size of a palm.
Before the bottle cap was even opened, a terrifying chill emanated from the jade bottle.
It immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Chen Xuan was also stunned by this scene.
Carefully sensing the pure, cold energy emanating from the jade bottle.
Chen Xuan's eyes lit up quickly.
"Such pure cold energy. If I'm not mistaken, what Black Tiger is holding should be a bottle of extremely cheap, ten-thousand-year-old Frost Essence, right?"
"Haha, what luck! I actually came across this item at the fellow disciples' trade fair!"
